Unai Emery says a return to the Champions League is crucial for Arsenal as he begins work as the new head coach at the Emirates.
The Spaniard was announced as Arsene Wenger's successor at the Emirates on Wednesday following Arsene Wenger's departure after 22 years at the club.
Arsenal finished sixth in the Premier League last season, consigning the club to a second consecutive season in the Europa League, and Emery says a return to the top four is vital.
"Our objective is to be among the best teams in Europe, to win titles and to be in the elite of European teams," he said.
"I also want the team to make the fans proud. I know they are already and I want them to be even more so.
"I believe in the players who are here. The objective is to work hard together.
"That is very important for the club after two years outside the Champions League to work in this way. To be the best club, the best team in the Premier League and also in the world."
